A two-panel comic. Panel 1: a worried curly-haired young man stands beside a sandwich shop whose sign reads "TODAY: FREE SANDWICHES!" Panel 2, captioned "EARLIER," flashes back to the same young man lecturing an older man: "One thing you gotta know about this world, man: if the service is free, you ARE the product." The joke is that despite his own cynical warning, he couldn't resist the free sandwiches. Votey: a close-up of an uneasy man's face with a thought above him reading "WORTH IT" — he took the free deal anyway and decided it was worthwhile.
